It’s hard to believe that it’s been 20 years since Imhotep, the Egyptian chancellor, tried to ruin the world. 1998 and 1999 gave us a lot of amazing movies, but unfortunately, many actors who played in those cult films have disappeared from the screen.
Inspired by the atmosphere of the past, Bright Side has decided to investigate what has happened to those stars and how they look now.
Deuce Bigalow — Rob Schneider (Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo)
Antoine — Oded Fehr (Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo)
Imhotep — Arnold Vosloo (The Mummy)
Evelyn Carnahan — Rachel Weisz (The Mummy)
Rick O’Connell — Brendan Fraser (The Mummy)
Lola — Franka Potente (Run Lola Run)
Manni — Moritz Bleibtreu (Run Lola Run)
Sebastian Valmont — Ryan Phillippe (Cruel Intentions)
Cecile Caldwell — Selma Blair (Cruel Intentions)
Uncle Martin — Christopher Lloyd (My Favorite Martian)
